Victoria is likely to soon follow suit with NSW and impose greater restrictions on jockey agents in the wake of the
John Walter disqualification in
Sydney.
Walter, a high-profile punter and one of the most prominent jockey agents in NSW, was last month handed a six-month disqualification by
Racing NSW stewards for betting in races in which one of his clients was competing.
Walter pleaded guilty to the charge after placing 25 bets across five races in NSW where a jockey he represented,
Josh Parr, was riding.
TRAINER COBALT CLOUD – “THIS IS NO WAY TO LIVE”

Mitch Freedman says the cobalt cloud that has hung over his stable for two years is “no way to live” and has demanded action from
Racing Victoria.
A Freedman-trained horse returned a cobalt positive in
June 2018, yet Freedman has not been charged and says he has no idea how the positive occurred. He said he did not even use vitamins that stewards suggested may have caused a spate of cobalt positives.
Freedman contacted
RV chief steward Jamie Stier last week to seek answers about the swab and whether he would be charged.
